Good morning. Since updating to the lates OS version (Sequoia 15.0.1), I am unablue to backup to the same network folder on my NAS system. When I try to configure a new folder using the GUI, I get an error message that reads "No available Time Machine Destinations". I would appreciate any...

Thanks, I had tried that link myself but when you follow it, you get an error stating the software can't be found.

Good morning. I am in need of a link to download Mac OS X Catalina. I have searched all over and I just can't find a link to it. Does anyone here have a link to it? I am trying to re-install it on an old MacBook Air 2013. It is currently running 10.8.5. TIA, Javier

Thanks for the response. The hard drive is empty, no OS on it. While booting up, I pressed the command key and 'R' for recovery over the internet. I attempted this several times, at least four. The error stated something about download error. I need to get this done as soon as possible...

I have an old MacBook pro (late 2011). I have tried to install the OS via the internet but keep getting errors. I have a second hard drive that has Sierra installed on it. I would like to use this second drive to install the OS on the first machine. There is one thing however. I want to...

Here is the error message that was reported by TimeMachine. Please advice. Javier

I have the same situation. I have a NAS system with 1.3T. I ended up deleting the entire backup streams as it would take hours preparing to take a backup. Yesterday, 4-20-2019, I started a brand new stream of backups at about 2 PM. I left the laptop running overnight only to find that the...

I have a mysql database where I keep track of some information. Currently, I enter all information from within a terminal session. I would like to change it up a bit. My intention is to create a local web page where I can enter the information into the database. I tried to enable php in my...

Well, I installed the latest version of the OS to both machines. This new version does not fix the "AirDrop" problem I described on my original post. Javier

I took a look at the description for the new version of the OS. It doesn't mention fixing my problem. Have you installed this new version and tested AirDrop?

I recently updated both my MB as well as my wife's MBA to 10.10.3. Now I realize that AirDrop does not work. I searched on Google where it was suggested to log off of iCloud and to log back into it. This was supposed to fix the problem. I didn't see what or how that would fix the problem but...

I know I have seen posts on the web from many people who are having the same issue that I am experiencing now. I have an instance of Mysql that I first installed when I was running Lion. After upgrading to the latest and greatest, I am forced to start the instance manually now. While it is...

I know there is not much as far as telling time machine what folders to backup, but how can you specify to restore files that are contained inside of a database? I know that Mysql holds the database files in "/usr/local/mysql/data/dbname". However I could not navigate to that folder location...

I recently removed my old HD from my MBPro and installed a new SSD. It is all working fine except for a Mysql database which did not make the transition. I still have the original hd. Is there a way to either boot off an external USB drive (old hd) or how can I mount it in order to obtain the...

I have a USB dongle that I keep inserted into one of the two USB ports on my MacBook Pro. It would always work just fine until after I upgraded to OS X 10.9. Now I need to remove the dongle and re-insert it before it is recognized. I know this is due to the recent upgrade of the OS I just...

Sorry if I am posting in the wrong forum but I was wondering if anyone has tested the new OS with MySql? I have installed MySql 10.8.5 and it is working just fine but I hear that the new OS is supposed to increase your battery life. I would hate to upgrade the OS just to find out that I can no...

I have a mbp with a 2.8 GHz Intel Core I7 with 500Gb hd. I created a second partition to keep some some data encrypted. I no longer need to keep any data encrypted so I have deleted all of the data that was found in that partition. I have taken several backups since I removed said data. I...

Thanks again. I will take a look at both articles and make up my mind as to which option to take. Now that we have two Macs at home, I need to be proactive and make sure we don't loose any of our data. Even though it would only be pictures and movies plus a few documents. My wife would be...

OK Great. Now I have another question regarding time machine backups. I also have a NAS system with 1.8T. I use it to take monthly backups of my windows machine. I am not sure that I can just get rid of those backups. Anyway, would I need to reformat the entire NAS for Mac OS X in order to...
